First off;I searched......I even ran an Advanced Search....

Unless I did something wrong (like with the money thread:mrgreen: ),nothing came up.

So,here it is,the official "Pet Peeves" thread.

For the sake of clarity,let's go with this definition:

Quote

Something about which one frequently complains; a particular personal vexation.

I would also add:Something which generally doesn't bother most people too much,but irks the **** out of you.

I have a load of these,but for some reason I can't recall any readily,so I'll be back.

Go!!!

what like Blues Brothers 2000

what winds me up is when i'm driving.. people who pull out of junctions right in front of you as though their car is on fire, then proceed to drive in front of you at far less than half the speed limit!

Did i ever tell you about the time.

Okay I started this about a week ago,and it didn't quite take off like I'd hoped,so lemme try again.This is a post I made on another board responding to the very same thread question (and more what I had in mind):

*Rubs hands together gleefully,lights a Marlboro....*

Today is a good day for this.....

Self-righteous people

Know-it-alls

People that think less of you because of your taste in music or movies.

People that drive on the Interstate like they're trying to qualify for ****in' NASCAR or Formula 1.

People who ****in' speed up and cut me off when I try to make a lane-change.(This is why I stopped using turn signals)

People who treat me like a cross between the Antichrist and Charles Manson because I smoke cigarettes.

Drive through speakers that sound like they're trying to talk to you from the bottom of a ****ing lake.(Seriously,as advanced as we as a people have become from a technological standpoint,how hard is it to come up with a speaker/intercom system that doesn't sound so awful?)

People that attempt to speak for their entire gender.

People that don't listen;they just allow you to talk.

Oprah Winfrey

People who mis-apply the word "addiction"

People who always speak in code.

People who question nothing

People who wax nostalgic and pine for an era of history they weren't even alive to see.

People who call me a pessimist when I try to remind them of whatever bad side something may have.There's a difference between dwelling on the negative,and acknowledging it.

Betrayal.

More later....

Hm...I say things about 10 times before it registers in my head I've said it.

Ok...my pet peeves

People who talk and talk and never shut up

Putting a curse word in every sentance just to feel cool

Begging and begging to get something and then never using it

Girls who feel they must always act stupid to get guys to like them

Ok, I'm done for now, I have ranted and am happy.
